 * I already tried that and it just resulted in different problems. Before they 
   wouldn’t show and after I get this
 * RSS Error: XML error: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1, column 2 when
   I use this [http://www.ukathletics.com/headline-rss.xml](http://www.ukathletics.com/headline-rss.xml)
 * and when I use this [http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/ncb/news](http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/ncb/news)
   the feed will show but I get this at the bottom of it
 * Warning: gzuncompress() [function.gzuncompress]: data error in /home4/bigbluer/
   public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1831
 * Fixed my rss by going back it by going back to the 3 files mentioned from 2.8.6
   rather than the 2.9 files with no problems with anything else I’ve seen yet.
 * Don’t think I can say this is resolved but its working now
